Background: Automated comparison of complete sets of genes encoded in two genomes can provide insight on the genetic basis of differences in biological traits between species. Gen...
Background: Oligonucleotide frequencies were shown to be conserved signatures for bacterial genomes, however, the underlying constraints have yet not been resolved in detail. In t...
We introduce a new notion of minors for simplicial complexes (hypergraphs), so-called homological minors. Our motivation is to propose a general approach to attack certain extrema...
Given independent random points X1, . . . , Xn ∈ Rd with common probability distribution ν, and a positive distance r = r(n) > 0, we construct a random geometric graph Gn wi...
Model-based segmentation approaches, such as those employing Active Shape Models (ASMs), have proved to be useful for medical image segmentation and understanding. To build the mo...
